Bite Size Peanut Butter & Dark Chocolate Cookies


Peanut Butter + Chocolate = Perfection



It's a simple equation.

I remember when peanut butter companies first started mixing chocolate into the jar. The next thing I knew I had taken one too many spoonfuls. Since then it's been difficult to have one without the other. The best part is you never have to worry about having just the peanut butter, or just the chocolate ever again. This cookie dough combination is packed with protein and antioxidants making one sweet cookie.

This cookie dough uses brown rice flour which is great for those of you following a gluten-free diet. Everyone can take a bite out of this delicious treat!


Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup brown rice flour (or any whole grain flour)
1/2 cup vanilla soymilk
4 tablespoons peanut butter, unsalted
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp butter, unsalted
1 egg
1 teaspoon cinnamon



Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.
3. Add in the egg, milk, butter and sugar. Stir well.
4. Add the remaining ingredients to the dough and mix thoroughly.
5. Spoon small balls of dough onto a nonstick baking pan. Let cookies bake for approximately 25-30 minutes.

Serve warm with a glass of cold milk!




Makes 15 bite-size cookies
